Nuvoco Vistas Fuels Growth with ₹2.4 Billion Gujarat Expansion, Targeting 35 MMTPA by FY2028

Nuvoco Vistas Corporation Limited has announced a major capacity expansion plan with the establishment of a 2 million metric tonnes per annum (MMTPA) cement grinding unit at Limla, Surat, Gujarat. The strategic investment is aimed at strengthening the company’s presence in western India while improving operational efficiency across its manufacturing network.

The new grinding plant is expected to become operational in Q2 FY2026-27 and forms an important part of Nuvoco’s long-term strategy to expand its cement production capacity and cater to growing infrastructure and housing demand.

Strategic Expansion in Gujarat

The upcoming Limla grinding facility has been strategically planned to strengthen Nuvoco’s footprint in Gujarat and Maharashtra, two of India’s fastest-growing construction and infrastructure markets.

By establishing a manufacturing base closer to key demand centres, the company expects to improve product availability, reduce logistics costs, and enhance customer service across western India.

The expansion will also reduce the production burden on Nuvoco’s existing cement plants in Rajasthan, enabling those facilities to focus more effectively on serving customers in northern India.

₹240 Crore Investment

Nuvoco will invest approximately ₹240 crore (₹2.4 billion) in the project. The expansion will be funded by the parent company through Inter-Corporate Deposits (ICDs), reflecting its confidence in the long-term growth potential of the Indian cement industry.

The investment is expected to strengthen the company’s manufacturing network while supporting future demand from infrastructure development, housing, and commercial construction projects.

Capacity Expansion Roadmap

The Limla project forms part of Nuvoco’s broader capacity expansion strategy.

As of March 31, 2026, the company reported an overall capacity utilisation of around 81%, indicating strong demand across its operations.

Nuvoco is targeting:

• 25 MMTPA consolidated cement capacity by June 30, 2026
• 35 MMTPA total cement capacity by FY2027-28

These expansion plans are expected to enhance the company’s competitive position and support long-term revenue growth.

Strengthening Market Leadership

India’s cement demand continues to benefit from increased investments in roads, housing, urban development, industrial projects, and public infrastructure.

By expanding production capacity in western India, Nuvoco aims to improve supply chain efficiency, strengthen regional market share, and capitalize on the country’s long-term infrastructure growth story.

The Limla grinding unit represents another important milestone in the company’s strategy to build a geographically diversified manufacturing network capable of serving customers more efficiently across India.
